Selling drugs online

Post by fuzzywuzzy »

what do you guys think about these dudes? I know Australia has had to ramp up laws to stop it from happening because some of the new drugs didn't come under the old "ingredients" that were banned. Making them legal to import into the country .

We've had quite a few deaths of teens buying these psuedo new age drugs.

In a statement to 7.30, Customs issued a warning to Australian users of Silk Road and similar sites.

"While it is not possible to comment on ongoing investigations, users of these websites should be aware that law enforcement and customs agencies worldwide remain active in targeting these websites and their customers," the statement said.

Mr Bridge reiterated the warning, saying that if Silk Road could be shut down, so could the other sites.

"Now that the authorities have a list of all the financial transactions of the people that have been on that site, you'd have to be crazy to go back on another site because they'll get you," he said.

"They'll get you and it's the only way to stop these evil, evil sites."

Its a problem is many countries. Law enforcement will always be at least one step behind in finding the "secret" places on the Internet where drugs are sold and at least two steps behind in adding drugs/ingredients to their "controlled substance" lists.

I think it's more the astonishing fact that these sites aren't secret.... they are out there for anyone to see ..go take a look very easily accessed.

And beyond that is yet another level that is more difficult to find. And beyond that is yet another.

The "war on drugs" is obviously a losing cause, at least the way countries have been going at it. It's time for a new approach, although I'm not sure what would work more effectively.
